Things Making Me Smile

Today:
  • McKay took his quarterly nap. 2 hours! (Too bad Max only slept for 45 minutes.)
  • When we woke McKay up, Max was so excited to see him he leaned over to McKay and grabbed his head to pull him in for some hugs and kisses. I think he missed his brother!
  • It rained tonight. Just a few sprinkles but it smelled wonderful.
Other days:

McKay loves to help.

How can you NOT smile at that?

A balloon = hours of entertainment and laughter. The kind of laughter that makes you laugh too.

McKay talking and singing to Max until I can get in there to get him up from his nap. That stool has a lot of uses in our house.

A day or two later he would have been able to get to Lightening McQueen. He might have on this day too but he ran out of time, if you know what I mean.
This picture sums up how I feel at the end of some days. I just can't quite seem to make it. Soon life will be back to normal. Soon. For now, I'll focus on the things that make me smile. And there are a lot of them.

That's the key, to focus on the small things that make you smile. Lately my "normal" has been WAY too...busy and complicated! So I'm looking forward to a less stressful "normal" soon...soon being in a few months or so hopefully, but then again...who knows? I hope you can get settled in soon, that'll make a huge difference! Moving is always a chore!
